Announcements:

  • Pawtism free work and fundraiser, July 16th at Hanes Park. Travel a mile by whatever means you choose and incorporate exercises to your desired difficulty level.  Pawtism aims to educate and help fund life-changing dogs for people on the autistic spectrum.  DoughJoes will be supplying doughnuts and coffee.
  • The Shmed 5k and FunRun, August 28th. All proceeds to benefit Crisis Control.  Sign up at https://runsignup.com/Race/NC/WinstonSalem/Shmedfest.
  • Lamb Chop has Q at Conspiracy tomorrow and Thursday at WIB. Those two are not mutually exclusive.

 

  • Prayer Requests:
  • Bevo’s son, Dean, broke his femur last week. Pray for Bevo and his wife as they bear the physical burden of transporting Dean around their split-level home.
  • Thistle is having hip trouble down in Laurinburg.
  • Van Gogh’s neck.

NMM:

  • Van Gogh departed when we launched, he and Hansel having already completed a Murph while everyone else was sleeping. VG tweaked his neck, hence his departure.
    • On the namearama recording, it sounds like Hansel’s name is “Killer” which is awesome.
  • There was an atmosphere of apprehension as we moseyed west on 5th.  Would we continue down to Summit and the hills of West End as YHC is known to do?  Alas, not today.
  • The lunge walk with arm-swirlies was an attempt to troll Cherry Pie. Fittingly, he resisted and performed burpee broad jumps around the semi-circle.
    • Did you know: the park on Second Street was the site of 2 springs that fed Old Salem’s water supply?  Maps of the city still show a stream flowing underneath the park.
  • Chick Flick cruised through the workout and has the best CoT pose.
  • Lamb Chop doesn’t read backblasts, doesn’t check the Q calendar, and doesn’t go to WIB. However, he loves to run and has the second best CoT pose.
  • Turnover has decided that the hill he will die on is the one that requires him to perform a CoT pose. It would be so easy just to use a timeout hand motion, a la Chris Webber.  Come on, man.
  • Great to see Wobegon, the Nan’Tan. He kept us in line.
  • In honor of Huck, the perfect burpee (burpee + 3 merkins) has been renamed the Hurpee. Look for it at a workout near you soon.

Thanks for coming out, guys.  I told you it wouldn’t be as terrible as Honey Badger’s Q last week.
